Edit: Cross the last two flights due to delay of DEN-IAH. I do not want to be stuck in Houston tonight. A 1K agent rebooked the DEN-RIC nonstop flight in J, resulting in seven hour layover😂😂 No better option available.

The plane for DEN-IAH hub-to-hub flight was stolen for another flight. There was almost 1-hr delay for this flight. My connection time at IAH would be negative if I took the originally booked flight. Fortunately, I met mpiotrow and he helped me kill part of my layover.

Unexpected upgrade UA1794 OGG-SFO last night. 1K/Chase card. Part of 27.5k award itinerary HNL-OGG-SFO-LAS. Saved about 27k by going via OGG. UA upgraded me twice for the inconvenience 
Got upgrade text while in 10F. Moved up to 4E before GA arrived w/ new BP.

SBA - SFO, upgraded 10 min after 24 hour check in. Email sent this time too.
A short flight but still nice SFO is tough to clear often on this one.

Does anyone know if an Air Canada ticketed, United operated flight would be eligible for CPU on the United leg?
